Description:
Thomas Reid is widely acknowledged as the principal architect of Scottish common sense philosophy. Combining a sophisticated reponse to the skeptical and idealist views of his day, Reid's thought stands as an important alternative to Humean skepticism, Kantian idealism and Cartesian rationalism. This volume is a comprehensive overview of Reid's output and covers not only his philosophy in detail, but also his scientific work and his extensive historical influence.--
